From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

NVK itself is not dependent on anything proprietary, but it's practically required to enable NVIDIA's GSP firmware blob if you want to see actual performance since it's what enables re-clocking (older post by Collabora here which touches on it).
Is the GSP firmware included in
linux-firmwareyet?IIRC, yes, it will come starting with Linux 6.8
Slight correction, it's available in Linux 6.7, and has to be enabled with the kernel parameter
nouveau.config=NvGspRm=1. It may be enabled by default soon though (latest news I could find about that here).
